DC’s revitalized Columbia Heights neighborhood has gone modern with Highland Park, a stylish new residential high-rise. Designed by award-winning Hickok Cole Architects and built by S.E. Foster Corporation, the 295,400-square-foot structure offers 234 apartments—and public areas that reflect its contemporary sensibility. The lobby boasts a floor-to-ceiling backlit LED wall in a kaleidoscope of colors, a 400-gallon aquarium full of colorful tropical fish and a translucent, blue-resin staircase. Montis sofas and white terrazzo flooring finish the look.
